Coppell Amateur Radio Enthusiasts

It has been awhile since we updated our page. A couple of news briefs. 1.) Our repeater is operational and in it's permanent location 180' in the air! This gives us great coverage throughout the Dallas/Ft. Worth area. 2.) We have resumed in person monthly meetings. We are meeting every third Tuesday at 7PM at the Cozby library in Coppell. Hope you can come join us at our next meeting. Members, non-members, licensed ham radio operators, or those just interested in learning more about the hobby may attend. Hope to see you there!

Hello everyone! Hope everyone isn’t going stir crazy staying at home.

I wanted to report that I have added some height to the antenna mast that the repeater uses. We are still in my backyard while we are waiting for the Covid-19 situation to get better. However, if you weren’t able to reach or communicate with the repeater perhaps you can now. As a reminder, the frequency is 444.225 with a positive offset and a PL tone of 110.9

Hope to hear you on the repeater!
